2017 Map of Scopus

About this map

The settlement of Scopus anchors the lower-central portion of this Bollinger County landscape, where the road network of State HWY YY and local routes like Co RD 324 intersect. This area is characterized by a high density of small family and community burial grounds, including James Cem, Judge Long Cem, and Pulliam Cem, indicating a long-established rural population and potential points of interest for genealogists tracing Ozark foothill roots. The terrain is deeply dissected by a network of drainage systems such as Little Whitewater Cr and Mayfield Cr, with named topographic features like Otter Slide Hollow and Bull Lot Hollow providing specific identifiers for the land's contours. To the north, the small community of Mayfield sits near Buck Knob, while Lona Lou Lake provides a rare contained water body amidst the winding creeks of Wolf Cr and Little Muddy Cr.
